Security experts unveil Google Wallet flaw

Greatly hyped via the power of its marketing outreach, the Google Wallet appeals to people who wanted to give up credit cards.

Now, one leading security expert has shown how thieves can easily hack the data from your credit card data loaded on the wallet. If you would like to learn more, here’s a YouTube video on the topic.

I am hoping that everyone who is considering a move to this new form of technology reconsider until Google and its partners fix the security issues. Of course, most of us don’t have this app for our phone. But, if you do….., I would take the steps to remove it from your app until the folks at Google get an effective security fix for this.
